Summary
Visitors at Florence's Galleria dell'Accademia were undeterred by the recent controversy at a Florida school over a lesson featuring Michelangelo's David, as they flocked to see the sculpture. The school's decision to force the resignation of the principal over complaints about the Renaissance masterpiece prompted discussions at a school board meeting in Tallahassee and criticism from tourists and locals alike.
